Rove and Bush To Aid Lieberman in General

According to a close Lieberman adviser, the President’s political guru, Karl Rove, has reached out to the Lieberman camp with a message straight from the Oval Office: “The boss wants to help. Whatever we can do, we will do.”

Dan Gerstein called from the Lieberman campaign to say the above account from another Lieberman adviser is not accurate. While confirming that Rove called Lieberman, he added: “Rove made a personal call, no help was offered, and we are not interested regardless.” A senior White House official also says that the account is “not accurate.”
